AGARTALA: The attack on a Shyamoli Paribahan bus at Bangladesh's Bishwa Road, which is located along the route, has been condemned by Tripura Transport Minister Sushanta Chowdhury on November 30. The event took place while the bus was travelling from Agartala to Kolkata.

According to Minister Chowdhury, a Shyamoli Paribahan bus was attacked while it was going from Agartala to Kolkata on Bangladesh's Brahmanbaria Bishwa Road.

“The Indian passengers in the bus were terrified by this incident, as the bus was passing through a stretch on Bishwa Road. Suddenly, a truck carrying goods deliberately hit the bus to cause an accident. At the same time, an auto on the road came in front of the bus, resulting in a collision with the Shyamoli bus. Following this incident, local people continued to threaten the Indian passengers in the bus. In their presence, they shouted various anti-India slogans and made harsh comments, even threatening to kill the passengers. The Indian passengers in the bus were terrified by this incident,” said the minister.

Demanding swift measures, the minister further added, "I strongly condemn this incident and urge the administration of that country to intervene immediately to ensure the safety of the Indian passengers in the bus."
